I was a huge fan of the X Games in the late 90s, early 2000s, this guy was incredible. I wonder what was so terrible that made him kill himself?

It wasn't so much living in North Carolina as much as all the people from New Jersey who had moved there and who thought it was funny to say North Cack-a-lackey.
